When should personal freedom yield to the common good? - 3 views

  •  
    Here is an article about people having personal freedom to not take the vaccine and risk peoples lives around them. There is also the argument of people should abide the government restrictions, and wear masks during the pandemic.
  •  
    It seems you have found a good article with sound resources for information and in depth analysis on the human trend of morality and how it relates to the issue at hand of personal freedom in the midst of the pandemic. Its interesting to see the history behind the debate of "common good" in Typhoid Mary and how her story relates to todays issues. Though the article shows a bias, it is clear that they cite their sources and are presenting information clearly for the reader to form an opinion albeit the article is hoping the reader forms an opinion of questioning the ways in which Americans choose to embrace their personal freedoms. Great find!
  •  
    I love this article, it explains both sides. People who want to follow government regulations and those who don't. I think personal freedom is a big thing, we all have our own opinions and feelings. It's important for everyone to respect others wishes and feelings.

Details on State Prayer in Public School Laws - FindLaw - 2 views

  •  
    Prayer has been a topic of some controversy with the public school systems in America for over 50 years, it has been federally banned other than silent prayers, and in some states it has been banned all together. This is a disgusting violation of Americans first amendment right, as well as our inalienable rights as human of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, for some prayer is a pursuit of happiness. To ban ones ability to pray in school, while they are being taught as if God were not real, is a outrageous violation of the rights of not just Christians, but Islamic folk, and people of Jewish decent. Prayer offers peace, and a hope for salvation, and a denial of such ability in a place where most students attend is an outrageous violation of our rights as humans, and as Americans.

    A constitutional right of all citizens is the freedom of religion, and praying in schools is a way of exercising that right. If praying is banned in public education, then the constitutional right to practice religion is being infringed upon.
  •  
    While religious freedoms are very important in our country we need to look at what the purpose of school is. In my opinion, schools are not morally obligated but factually obligated. This article states that you must look at the religious aspect to understand history which I completely agree. I do not remember my classes removing religious aspects from the curriculum. Is this prevalent nowadays?
  •  
    I am on the fence with this topic. I think that all Americans should have the right to pray in school but on the other hand I feel that it may be disrespectful to the third party. This is a tough topic for all people weather they are religious or not.
  •  
    America is the land of opportunity and freedom. We have the freedom to follow any religion. I think that banning prayer in schools is something that takes away from that right. If it's pray is part of the religion, why is it frowned upon and seen as disrespectful? Our country should respect and go for what it stands for.
